reason for fluid loss. If a leak occurs,
take the vehicle to your dealer and
have it repaired as soon as possible.
Caution

transmission fluid may damage the
vehicle, and the damage may not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always use the correct automatic
transmission fluid. See

0 377.
See your dealer to have the fluid and
filter changed at the intervals listed in
the Maintenance Schedule 0368.
Engine Air Filter Life
System
If equipped, this feature provides the
engine air filter's remaining life and
best timing for a change. The timing to change an engine air filter depends
on driving and environmental
conditions.
When to Change Engine Air
Filter
When the Driver Information Center
(DIC) displays a message to replace
the engine air filter at the next oil
change, follow this timing.
When the DIC displays a message to
replace the engine air filter soon,
replace the engine air filter at the
earliest convenience. The system must
be reset after the engine air filter is
changed.
If the DIC displays a message to check
the engine air filter system, see your
dealer.
How to Reset Engine Air Filter
Life System
